i have 4,000 miles, 6 months on my RR-OCC. i could see a discoloration on the glass gage tube. taking it out took not even 5 minutes. i removed the bottom drain plug, and hold it over the oil pan. NO OIL ? i even blow in the in and out nozzles, still no oil. got a Q-tip, and swabbed the hoses and inside the OCC, and discover everything is coated w/ oil.

i drive spiritedly, but don't track or race the car. is this amount of oil normal, (or lack of oil) would be more like. i know the RR-OCC it installed correctly because their DIY was so easy to follow.

anyone else have similar results ?

thanks for your reply.

I installed mine late may...

drive about 500 miles a month (very short trips) usualy oil doesnt heat up operating temperature and I dont romp on it until its at OT.

So I have about 4 months on my car with 2000 miles . There is discoloration and I have oil leaking from the the top of the RRCC. however there is no oil in the level indicator. Also I havent taken it off yet. Will do that after its replaced.

I've had mine since mid June (with a tune installed). I drive about 700 miles a month, spirited. I just emptied it last weekend to fix the only leak I had around the sight tube and there was some oil that came out (after ~3,000 miles). Wasn't a significant amount, maybe 1 fl. oz.

cant see any oil in mine but is leaking....

fwiw, i have mine in for about a year and still see no oil in the glass tube.
i probably have a leak - but have not seen the leak yet... too lazy to look really closely.

yes im certain your can is leaked, mine too

[Spydeputy]

i'm glad to say that the OCC has not leaked, but sounds like other have issues. at what time did Ris Racing up date the can and fix the leak issue? anyone know ?

Just get some worm clamps or whatever and tighten everything.

Update:

RR sent a replacement w/o any problems. It wasnt the same powder coated but at this point i dont care

when taking off the old RRCC there was oil leaking from the top fitting(s) and possibly around where the head of the can attaches to the body. I didnt notice any oil leaking from the bottom screw.

After removing the original CC I turned it to the right by accident (where the gauge is) and it did show oil being caught inside !!!

please note after removal i inspected the original CC and the orings around the oil gauge were shot .... broken and almost all falling off. FWIW

Riss Racing... thank you for replacing the CC and standing behind your product !

i just emptied mine , the outside level was showing 0 oil but the can was filled like 50% . I fixed the leaking myself.

50% WOW

[ianthegreat]

I never have oil in my OCC, it just leaks all over my engine bay. Eh.

Mine leaked at first. I had to insert some wire mesh inside and then it started to catch some oil. POS can if you ask me.

Very very little oil ever...this engine doesn't produce significant blowby oil and I'm wondering if this mod was worth in my case..leaks at the top..will try talking to RR they've always had great customer service

Are you kidding me? This engine has SERIOUS blow by problems. Maybe you have a leak in your can or in your connectors, but this engine has serious blow by issues. Just pull your charge pipe and look if you don't believe me.
